People keep saying that they've had all these problems with Vista x64… but, funnily enough, I have encountered almost none. There have been two copy-protection programs that broke, one of which I was able to patch; for the other one, I had to use a crack. There was a problem with the Adobe CS2 installer, but that was easy to resolve. And that's about it.
